Anyway, to business. We do indeed have new video from all the artists in the title, including a “Minaj á trois” of videos featuring Nicki Minaj including one where she is complaining that her garden equipment isn’t very bright…well, I think that’s what “Stupid Hoe” must be about. If you like your piano’s hooks huge and your videos at their most random, then check out Miike Snow’s “Paddling Out” and of course Madonna is back in all her SuperBowl exclusive glory with “Give Me All Your Luvin’” featuring Ms Minaj and M.I.A. whose new video you should also be looking out for in our next update because it’s also amazing!

Check out below for full details!

We also have added TV Zone for you to easily browse our many TV Channels. For full details see our Spotlight Zone section below.

For all of you having the “black screen at startup” issue, this issue is now fixed, just relaunch the application and it should work, if not delete the application and re-download from the store and retry.

One thing I’m not changing… how I sign out… If you don’t like it… stop reading now!

I’m off to get my shell suit and bumbag out and listen to boy bands and Hanson…

Ben

We have been extremely busy throughout 2011… busy listening to you, listening to our staff, listening to anyone who will give us an opinion or idea about all things VidZone. So, what have we been doing with all these suggestions? We have been laboriously and lovingly crafting them into what I can introduce to you today as… VidZone 2.0, a completely new way to experience the wonderful world of music video!

What’s different… where shall I start.

Completely New User Interface

A fresh way you use VidZone – No more small windows or page upon page of menus. VidZone has been completely revamped and rebranded with unobtrusive menus and easier navigation.

Brand New Search

Find exactly what you are looking for, fast – Our brand new progressive search instantly displays results of artists / videos by just typing a few letters. The more letters you type the more defined the search.

Zones

See just what you want to see – Instead of having to sift through music videos you aren’t interested in, simply enter the Zone that interests you the most and be surrounded by the music videos you like. Metalhead? Enter the MetalZone, Pop your thing? Try the PopZone… you get the gist.

MyZone

All you want in one place – Whether you have perfected your own playlist, Love one of ours or have a favourite TV Channel? Save them all to your very own zone so you can keep all that you love in one easy to find place.

Recommendation Engine

Continue the journey – Start with a music video you like and you will quickly see more videos by that artist, or related artists or VidZone compiled playlists and TV channels containing that artist. Keep on with your journey until you have created the perfect playlist.

V:Mix

Let us do the work for you – Pick an artist you like and then let us automatically generate a playlist for you based on that artist. You can then press play to view the entire V:Mix or pick the individual music video you want from our selection.

Social Integration

Tell the world – Confessing your love for a music video on Facebook is simple. Tell all your friends what you are watching with a few simple clicks or invite your PSN friends to VidZone just as easily.

VIP Zones

Watch what the stars are watching – Your favourite artists have been on VidZone and have saved their playlists in our VIP Zone. Artists include Blink 182, LMFAO, Justice, Professor Green, Pixie Lott and more!

We hope you like all the changes and improvements we have made – go try it out for yourself. We would also love to hear what you think. See below on the many ways of keeping in touch with us.
